Black Girl Lost Lyrics - Foxy Brown

I knew a girl name tanesha from the bronx 

Grew up in castle hill with two nieces and her aunt 

Her moms and her sister, everyday and night moms 

Tucked her in and kissed her hugging her tight singing this song 

(AWW MY LITTLE GIRL) 

She was born on october 22, right down in houston texas 

From two parents living reckless 

The day she was born the doctor covered her warm 

Placed her in her mothers arms, tears rang out while moms sing out 

(AWW MY LITTLE GIRL) 

When she was three moved to n.y.c. 

Pops got sent up north did a one to three stretch 

Moms all alone struggling for paper 

Her daughters can't eat had to borrow from they neighbors 

(AWW MY LITTLE GIRL) 

Age five life lop side that's when her pops died 

And moms crying, still trying all alone in this world 

No money and two girls of course 

The sad reality of a black girl lost and singing 

(AWW MY LITTLE GIRL) 

Age twelve she think she's a grown woman 

Now she in the streets late nights on her own mission 

I met her summer '08 front of her aunt's building 

Her moms looking out the window telling her to get in, screaming out 

(AWW MY LITTLE GIRL) 

13th birthday here come the problem 

Nesha fell for some kid name phillip from harlem 

Introduce him to moms her moms ain't like him 

So she ran away from home her and her moms kept fighting moms singing 

(AWW MY LITTLE GIRL) 

Thirteen still a youngin' out on her own 

On the streets dummin' out of her zone 

Choose man over her mother left out of her home 

In the back of her mind she still hear her mom cryin' singing 

(AWW MY LITTLE GIRL) 

Fourteen still hustling nesha got pregnant 

Phillip found out that's when relationship ended 

Ain't it sad cause the dude knew that he trapped her 

She can't leave tangle in his rapture. 

(AWW MY LITTLE GIRL) 

Late night nesha slept in the lobby 

Either pitch for somebody or, tricking her body 

Back to hustling her face got slit in a robbery 

In the hospital all she can think of was mommy screaming 

(AWW MY LITTLE GIRL) 

Now it's nesha and her baby tara 

She sworn to raise her baby proper and show the way 

One day look at her daughter saw her splitting image 

Seen herself through her child, she cried watching her smile singing 

(AWW MY LITTLE GIRL) 

Fifth-teen year old dope fiend, part-time mom 

Use the money in stash from her part-time job 

See her child-hood days was gone she realize living was hard 

Late night singing her song and saying 

(AWW MY LITTLE GIRL) 

What could she do? no place to sleep, no food to eat 

She wanna go home and leave this alone 

Bumped into her mom laraine on edgecomb 

Moms hugged her and embraced her thank god that he saved her. 

(AWW MY LITTLE GIRL) 

Late night on february 9th 

Nesha trippin' in her sleep can't make it through the night 

Asking god to come take her from this life 

And forgive her for her sins and the taking of her life screaming 

(AWW MY LITTLE GIRL) 

She can't take it now ran into the kitchen 

Grabbed a knife; on the edge her bed constipating how 

She could replace her life from all this pain 

So she slit her daughters throat........
